The increase was largely due to our investment in the new free-range farm which was completed at the end of calendar year 2016. Profit after tax was $8.48m (2016 $8.13m), an increase of 4.31%. Underlying EBITDA of $15.71m was relatively consistent with the prior period (2016 $15.99m). Cash management was favourable with cash increasing by $4.6m to $8.04m at 30 June 2017 despite an increase in inventory and receivables in excess of $2m. Net financial debt at 30 June 2017 was $0.33m (2016 $1.14m). The overall result was pleasing particularly when during the period November 2016 to February 2017 there was a significant increase in inventories with corresponding downward pressure on pricing due to an industry oversupply. Inventory continues to remains higher than ideal in the lead up to the spring period. We remain committed to our strategy to focus on our brands, investment in new farms, stable cash flow and growth opportunities. Consistent with our strategy, in July 2017, we acquired land for a new free-range farm in northern Victoria at a cost of $1.95m. This will be the site for a free range farm. Infrastructure improvements will be commencing as soon as practicable and construction of 2 sheds is due to commence later this calendar year. This purchase is also consistent with our commitment to support the changing requirements of our customers. The recently and much-publicised supermarket egg price war presents a challenge for the industry and the Company. Mr John Dunn CEO Egg Farmers Australia was reported as saying in July 2017 \"the transition from caged eggs to free range requires an enormous amount of investment by industry which was made more difficult if they eventually received less for their product.\" We understand the need to adapt to a changing customer landscape, however, as Mr Dunn stated, to meet our customers ongoing changing requirement for more free range we need to be paid appropriately. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) filed a Notice of Appeal from the Federal Court's decision on 10 February 2016 dismissing the ACCC's proceedings against the Australian Egg Corporation Limited (AECL) and others including Farm Pride Foods Ltd. The Appeal was heard by the full Court of the Federal Court of Australia on the 15 August 2016 and we are awaiting a judgement from the courts on the Appeal. Farm Pride Foods Ltd continues to deny the allegations made by the ACCC which is consistent with the decision of the trial judge who dismissed the claims. With the improved position of the company, directors have reviewed a number of options to utilise cash including the payment of dividends, share buybacks, investment into new facilities and growth opportunities. Our overriding desire is to maximise shareholder value. Given our customers indications for non-cage production we will continue to utilise the cash for further development of new facilities or acquisitions to meet that demand. We are also conscious of the potential for industry volatility. The Bureau of Meteorology has reported the outlook suggests dry and warm conditions are likely as we head into spring. Australia had its second driest June in 118 years of records, and July stayed drier than average over much of the south. This does not auger well for grain prices. Over the last few months we have seen grain prices spike upwards and with the recent rain this has recovered somewhat but not back to the previous levels. Our expectation is for higher feeds costs for 2018. Typically, increased day length, sunnier days and less rain for southern parts of Australia present the best conditions for increased egg production. The additional free range capacity added over the last couple of years and the growing number, Australia-wide, of smaller operators of hen flocks will again 3 result in increased inventory levels in the period from Spring until early in the new year which places further downward pressure on prices. This type of variability is typical of the egg industry and together with disease and changing weather patterns is why the Board continues to exercise cautious optimism about the future. Our expectation for 2018, due to increased feed costs, anticipated oversupply and reduced pricing is for an EDITDA reduction of up to 20% compared with 2017. The Board acknowledges and thanks our customers who have continued to work with us closely and constructively to maintain our supply partnerships. We also acknowledge the input and efforts of all our employees and thank them for their continuing commitment to our business. Peter Bell Chairman 4 Directors' Report The Directors present their report together with the financial report of the consolidated entity consisting of Farm Pride Foods Limited ('the Company') and the entities it controlled ('Farm Pride Foods', or the 'Group'), for the financial year ended 30 June 2017 and auditor's report thereon.

Results and review of operations Statutory consolidated net profit after tax attributable to the members of Farm Pride Foods Limited (\"Statutory Profit\") for the year ended 30 June 2017 was a profit of $8.48 million (2016: $8.13 million). Underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (\"Underlying EBITDA\") was $15.71 million (2016: $15.99 million). Underlying EBITDA represents statutory earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation adjusted for items that are material to revenue or expense that are unrelated to the underlying performance of the business ('significant items').

To be successful, the Group must attract, motivate and retain highly skilled directors and executives. To this end, the Group adopts the following principles in its remuneration framework: Provide competitive rewards to attract high calibre executives Link executive rewards to the performance of the Group and the creation of shareholder value Establish appropriate performance hurdles for variable executive remuneration Meet the Company's commitment to a diverse and inclusive workplace Promote the Company as an employer of choice Comply with relevant legislation and corporate governance principles. In accordance with best practice corporate governance, the structure of non-executive director and executive remuneration is separate and distinct. The board of directors are responsible for determining and reviewing compensation arrangements for directors and executives. The board of directors assess the appropriateness of the nature and amount of remuneration of directors and executives on a periodic basis by reference to relevant market conditions, as well as whether performance targets have been met, with the overall objective of ensuring maximum shareholder benefit from the retention of a high quality board and executives. 10 Directors' Report (continued) Use of Remuneration Consultants To ensure the board of directors are fully informed when making remuneration decisions, it seeks external remuneration advice. Remuneration consultants are engaged by, and report directly to, the committee. In selecting remuneration consultants, the committee considers potential conflicts of interest and requires independence from the Company's key management personnel and other executives as part of their terms of engagement. During the year, the board of directors engaged Simon Hare of HaRe Group to provide recommendations regarding: Insights on remuneration trends, regulatory developments and shareholder views; Market, industry and role data in relation to key management personnel; and Executive incentive schemes. The fees paid to the HaRe Group for remuneration advisory services amounted to $8,244.50. The board of directors are satisfied the advice received from the HaRe Group is free from undue influence from key management personnel to whom the remuneration recommendations apply, as the consultants were engaged by, and reported directly to, the Chairman. Non-Executive Director Remuneration Objective The board aims to set aggregate remuneration at a level which provides the Group with the ability to attract and retain directors of the highest calibre, whilst incurring a cost which is acceptable to shareholders. Structure The Group's Constitution and the ASX Listing Rules specify the aggregate remuneration of non-executive directors shall be determined from time to time by a general meeting. An amount not exceeding the amount determined is then divided between the directors as agreed. The cap on aggregate non-executive directors remuneration (which requires shareholder approval), and the manner in which it is apportioned amongst non-executive directors, is reviewed annually. The board will consider advice from external consultants as well as fees paid to non-executive directors of comparable companies when undertaking the annual review process. Superannuation contributions are made by the Group on behalf of non-executive directors in line with statutory requirements and are included in the remuneration package amount allocated to individual directors. The remuneration of non-executive directors for the period ended 30 June 2017 is detailed in the table titled Remuneration of key management personnel on page 14 (the 'Remuneration Table'). Executive Director Remuneration Executive directors are paid for their services as part of their employment contracts. Each executive director appointment to the board is conditional on them being employed by the Group. Executive Remuneration Objective The Group aims to reward executives with a level and mix of remuneration commensurate with their position and responsibilities within the Group. This involves: Rewarding executives for company, business unit and individual performance against targets set by reference to appropriate benchmarks; Aligning the interest of executives with those of shareholders; Linking reward with the strategic goals and performance of the Group; and Ensuring total remuneration is competitive by market standards. 11 Directors' Report (continued) Structure In determining the level and make-up of executive remuneration, the board of directors engage external consultants on market levels of remuneration for comparable roles. Remuneration consists of the following key elements: Fixed remuneration; and Variable remuneration. The proportion of fixed remuneration and variable remuneration is established for each executive by the board of directors. The variable portion consists of a cash bonus which is performance-based and is disclosed separately in the Remuneration Tables. The board of directors also considers current market conventions with regards to the splits between fixed, short-term and long-term incentive elements. Fixed Remuneration Objective The level of fixed remuneration is set to provide an appropriate and market-competitive base level of remuneration. Fixed remuneration is reviewed annually by the board of directors consisting of a review of Group, business and individual performance, relevant comparative remuneration in the market and internal and external advice on policies and practices where necessary. Structure Fixed remuneration is the non-variable component of an executive's annual remuneration. It consists of the base salary plus any superannuation contributions paid to a complying super fund on the executive's behalf, and the cost (including any component for fringe benefits tax) for other items such as novated vehicle lease payments. The amount of fixed remuneration is established based on relevant market analysis, and having regard to the scope and nature of the role and the individual executive's performance, expertise, skills and experience. Linking remuneration to performance - variable remuneration Remuneration is linked to performance to retain high calibre executives by motivating them to achieve performance goals which are aligned to Farm Pride Foods' interests. Variable remuneration Objective The objective of executive variable remuneration is to link executive remuneration to the achievement of the Group's annual operational and financial targets through a combination of both company and individual performance targets. Scheme Structure Variable remuneration is expressed as a percentage of a participant's total fixed remuneration ('TFR') comprising base salary, superannuation contributions and any other non-cash benefits, and are based on the achievement of budgeted revenue and profit targets each financial year. The board policy for determining the nature and amount of remuneration of key management personnel ('KMP') is agreed by the board of directors as a whole. For executives, the Company provides a remuneration package that incorporates cash bonuses and may include share-based remuneration. The contracts for service between the Company and executives are on a continuing basis the terms of which are not expected to change in the immediate future. The remuneration policy is directly related to Company performance at the discretion of the board of directors. 12 Directors' Report (continued) Bonuses are payable at the discretion of the board of directors. Non-executive directors receive fees and do not receive share-based remuneration or bonus payments. The Company determines the maximum amount for remuneration for directors by resolution. Employment Arrangements Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Company Secretary Bruce De Lacy is the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Bruce is employed under a standard employment contract with no defined length of tenure. Under the terms of his employment contract: Bruce may resign from his position by providing the Group with four weeks written notice The Group may terminate this agreement by providing four weeks written notice or provide payment in lieu of the notice period, or the unexpired part of any notice period, based on Bruce's total remuneration The Group may terminate at any time without notice if serious misconduct has occurred Details of Bruce De Lacy's salary are detailed in the Remuneration Table.

The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated. Farm Pride Foods Limited (the Company or parent) is a for profit company limited by shares incorporated in Australia whose shares are publicly traded on the Australian Stock Exchange. (a) Basis of preparation of the financial report This financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. The financial report has been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by revaluations to fair value for certain classes of assets as described in the accounting policies. The financial report is presented in Australian dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand ($000), except when otherwise indicated. The financial report was authorised for issue by the directors as at 18 August 2017. Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) The consolidated financial statements of Farm Pride Foods Ltd also comply with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Significant accounting estimates The preparation of the financial report requires the use of certain estimates and judgements in applying the consolidated entity's accounting policies. Those estimates and judgements significant to the financial report are disclosed in Note 2. Comparative figures: The 2016 comparative figure for biological assets have been adjusted to conform with changes in presentation in the current year. The adjustment was the classification of $378 thousand from current assets to non-current assets to represent the true life of the flock asset after a management review of the financial statements. The consolidated presentation of financial information and reclassification is intended to provide more useful information. The amendment has had no effect on the total assets, total liabilities, profit before income tax or the total comprehensive income for the period. (b) Going concern The financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis. (c) Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements are those of the consolidated entity, comprising the financial statements of the parent entity and of all entities, which the parent entity controls. The group controls an entity when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent entity, using consistent accounting policies. Adjustments are made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies, which may exist. All inter-company balances and transactions, including any unrealised profits or losses have been eliminated on consolidation. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is established and are derecognised from the date that control ceases. 21 Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (d) Revenue Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods have passed to the buyer and revenue can be measured reliably. Risks and rewards of ownership are considered to have passed to the buyer at time of delivery of the goods to the customer. Revenue from the sale of goods is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of promotional expenditure and rebates. Interest revenue is recognised when it becomes receivable on a proportional basis taking into account the interest rates applicable to the financial assets. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST). (e) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and at banks short term deposits with an original maturity of three months or less held at call with financial institutions, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the statement of financial position. (f) Inventories Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of manufactured products includes direct material, direct labour and a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal operating capacity, but excluding borrowing costs. Costs are assigned on a standard cost basis which approximates actual cost. The standard cost basis is reviewed by management regularly and adjusted to reflect current conditions, where necessary. Net realisable value is an estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less estimated costs of completion and estimated costs necessary to make the sale. (g) Property, plant and equipment Cost and valuation Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Repairs and maintenance are recognised in profit or loss as incurred. Depreciation Land is not depreciated. The depreciable amounts of all other property, plant and equipment are calculated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. The useful lives for each class of assets are: Freehold land and land improvements Buildings on freehold land and building improvements Plant and equipment Leased plant and equipment 2017 2016 40 years 40 years 1 to 20 years 5 to 20 years 40 years 40 years 1 to 20 years 5 to 20 years 22 Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (h) Impairment of non-financial assets For impairment assessment purposes, assets are generally grouped at the lowest levels for which there are largely independent cash flows ('cash generating units'). Accordingly, most assets are tested for impairment at the cash-generating unit level. Because it does not generate cash flows independently of other assets or groups of assets, any goodwill recognised by the entity is allocated to the cash generating unit or units that are expected to benefit from the synergies arising from the business combination that gave rise to the goodwill. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount of the asset or cash generating unit exceeds the asset's or cash generating unit's recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating unit is defined as the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and value in use. Refer to Note 2 for a description of how management determines value in use. Impairment losses in respect of individual assets are recognised immediately in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount such as property, plant and equipment, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease in accordance with applicable Standard. Impairment losses in respect of cash generating units are allocated first against the carrying amount of any goodwill attributed to the cash generating unit with any remaining impairment loss allocated on a pro rate basis to the other assets comprising the relevant cash generating unit. (i) Leases Leases are classified at their inception as either operating or finance leases based on the economic substance of the agreement so as to reflect the risks and benefits incidental to ownership. Finance leases Leases of fixed assets, where substantially all of the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the asset, but not the legal ownership, are transferred to the consolidated entity are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised, recording an asset and liability equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any guaranteed residual values. The interest expense is calculated using the interest rate implicit in the lease and is included in financial costs in the statement of comprehensive income. Leased assets are depreciated on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives where it is likely the consolidated entity will obtain ownership of the asset, or over the term of the lease. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and the lease interest expense for the period. Operating leases Operating lease payments are recognised as an operating expense on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. (j) Intangible assets Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination is their fair value at the date of acquisition. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Internally generated intangibles, excluding capitalised development costs, are not capitalised and the related expenditure is reflected in profit or loss in the period in which the expenditure is incurred. The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed as either finite or indefinite. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortised over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each reporting period. Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset are considered to modify the amortisation period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates. The amortisation expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognised in the statement of profit or loss in the expense category that is consistent with the function of the intangible assets. 23 Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (k) Income tax Current income tax expenses or revenue is the tax payable on the current period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax balances Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the applicable tax rates when the assets are expected to be recovered or liabilities are settled. Deferred tax liabilities are not recognised if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred income tax is also not accounted for if it arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity. Tax consolidation Farm Pride Foods Ltd and its wholly owned Australian controlled entities have implemented the tax consolidation legislation and have formed a tax-consolidated group from 1 July 2005. The head entity, Farm Pride Foods Ltd and its controlled entities in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. The Group has applied the Group allocation approach in determining the appropriate amount of current taxes and deferred taxes to allocate to members of the tax consolidated group. In addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, Farm Pride Foods Limited also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated group. Assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements with the tax consolidated entities are recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the Group. Any difference between the amounts assumed and amounts receivable or payable under the tax funding agreement are recognised as a contribution to (or distribution from) wholly-owned tax consolidated entities. (l) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the consolidated entity has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that outflow can be reliably measured. If the effect of the time value of money is material, provisions are discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects, when appropriate, the risks specific to the liability. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as a finance cost. (m) Employee benefits (i) Short term employee benefit obligations Liabilities arising in respect of wages and salaries, annual leave, accumulated sick leave and any other employee benefits (other than termination benefits) expected to be settled wholly before twelve months after the end of the annual reporting period are measured at the (undiscounted) amounts based on remuneration rates which are expected to be paid when the liability is settled. The expected cost of short term employee benefits in the form of compensated absences such as annual leave and accumulated sick leave is recognised in the provision for employee benefits. All other short term employee benefit obligations are presented as payables in the statement of financial position. 24 Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (ii) Other long term employee benefit obligations The provision for other long term employee benefits, including obligations for long service leave and annual leave, which are not expected to be settled wholly before twelve months after the end of the reporting period, are measured at the present value of the estimated future cash outflow to be made in respect of the services provided by employees up to the reporting. Expected future payments incorporate anticipated future wage and salary levels, duration of service and employee turnover, and are discounted at rates determined by reference to market yields as the end of the reporting period on high quality corporate bonds that have maturity dates that approximate the terms of the obligations. Any re-measurements for changes in assumptions of obligations for other long term employee benefits are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which the change occurs. Other long term employee benefit obligations are presented as current liabilities in the balance sheet if the entity does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, regardless of when the actual settlement is expected to occur. All other long term employee benefit obligations are presented as non-current liabilities in the statement of financial position. (iii) Superannuation The consolidated entity makes contributions to superannuation plans in respect of employee services rendered during the year. These superannuation contributions are recognised as an expense in the same period as when the employee services are received. (n) Borrowing costs Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred, except for borrowings directly incurred as part of the cost of the construction of a qualifying asset, in which case the costs are capitalised until the asset is ready for its intended use or sale. Borrowing costs can include interest expense calculated using the effective interest method, finance charges in respect of finance leases and exchange differences arising from foreign currency borrowings to the extent that they are regarded as an adjustment to interest costs and other costs that an entity incurs in connection with its borrowing of funds. (o) Financial instruments Classification The consolidated entity classifies its financial instruments, at initial recognition, in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held to maturity investments, available for sale financial assets or as derivatives designated as hedging instruments in an effective hedge, as appropriate. The classification depends on the purpose for which the investments were acquired. Derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Derivatives are carried as financial assets when the fair value is positive and financial liabilities when the fair value is negative. Non-derivative financial instruments Non-derivative financial instruments consist of investments in equity and debt securities, trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, loans and borrowings, and trade and other payables. Non-derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value, plus directly attributable transaction costs (if any), except for instruments recorded at fair value through profit or loss. After initial recognition, nonderivative financial instruments are measured as described below. 25 Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Loans and receivables Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Financial Liabilities Financial liabilities include trade payables, other creditors, loans from third parties, loans or other amounts due to director-related entities. All financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value and, in the case of loans and borrowings and payables, net of directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition non-derivative financial liabilities, comprising of interest bearing loans and borrowings, are recognised at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal payments and effective interest rate amortisation. The effective interest rate amortisation is included as finance costs in the statement of profit or loss. Financial liabilities are classified as current liabilities unless the consolidated entity has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. De-recognition A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in the statement of profit or loss. Offsetting of financial instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the consolidated statement of financial position if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realise the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously. Hedge accounting Certain derivatives are designated as hedging instruments and are further classified as either fair value hedges or cash flow hedges. At the inception of each hedging transaction, the consolidated entity documents the relationship between the hedging instruments and hedged items, its risk management objective and its strategy for undertaking the hedge transaction. The consolidated entity also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions have been and will continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items. (i) Fair value hedge Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualified as fair value hedges are recorded in profit and loss, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk. (ii) Cash flow hedge To qualify as a cash flow hedge the underlying transactions generating the cash flows must be highly probable. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualified as cash flow hedges are recognised in equity in the cash flow hedging reserve. Any hedge ineffectiveness is recognised in profit or loss. This gain or loss is recorded in the cashflow hedging reserve and released to profit or loss in the same period as when the hedged transactions affects profit or loss. 26 Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Impairment of financial assets Financial assets are tested for impairment at each financial year end to establish whether there is any objective evidence for impairment as a result of one or more events ('loss events') having occurred and which have an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial assets. For loans and receivables or held-to-maturity investments carried at amortised cost, impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset's original effective interest rate. The amount of the loss reduces the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in profit or loss. The impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss if the amount of the impairment loss decreases in a subsequent period and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised. (p) Foreign currency translations and balances Functional and presentation currency The financial statements of each entity within the consolidated entity are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates (the functional currency). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars which is the consolidated entity's functional and presentation currency. Transactions and balances Transactions in foreign currencies of entities within the consolidated entity are translated into functional currency at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency monetary items that are outstanding at the reporting date (other than monetary items arising under foreign currency contracts where the exchange rate for that monetary item is fixed in the contract) are translated using the spot rate at the end of the financial year. Except for certain foreign currency hedges, all resulting exchange differences arising on settlement or restatement are recognised as revenues and expenses for the financial year. (q) Goods and services tax (GST) Revenues, expenses and purchased assets are recognised net of the amount of GST, except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of an item of the expense. Receivables and payables in the statement of financial position are shown inclusive of GST. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included as part of receivables or payables in the statement of financial position. Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority. Cash flows are presented in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis, except for the GST component of investing and financing activities, which are disclosed as operating cash flows. 27 Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) (r) Biological Assets Biological assets comprise of flocks of hens and are valued at fair value. Fair value is not adjusted for costs to sell because disposal of the asset does not occur by sale. As there is no active market for flocks of hens, the fair value is based upon capitalised cost of poultry and is amortised over the productive life of the flock, which is between 50 and 60 weeks. The poultry flock is held for the purposes of producing eggs. Given the short productive life of the flock, an amortised cost approach has been adopted. The directors consider amortised cost to be an appropriate measure of fair value of the biological asset at the reporting date. Refer to Note 4: Fair Value Measurements for the details of the fair value measure key assumptions and inputs. (s) Comparatives Where necessary the comparative information has been reclassified and repositioned for consistency with current year disclosures. (t) Rounding Amounts The parent entity and consolidated entity have applied for relief available under ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors' Reports) Instrument 2016/191 and accordingly, the amounts in the financial statements and in the directors' report have been rounded to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, to the nearest dollar (where indicated). (u) Accounting standards issued but not yet effective at 30 June 2017 There are a number of Standards and Interpretations that will be mandatory in future reporting periods. We have not elected to early adopt these standards and interpretations. We are yet to quantify the effect on the reporting positions or performance of the consolidated entity. The Standards and Interpretations that are most relevant to the consolidated entity are set out below: AASB 9 Financial Instruments - Effective date 1 January 2018 (applicable date 1 July 2018) The standard includes a single approach for the classification and measurement of financial assets, based on cash flow characteristics and the business model used for the management of the financial instruments. It introduces the expected credit loss model for impairment of financial assets which replaces the incurred loss model used in AAAS 139. The standard also amends the rules on hedge accounting to align the accounting treatment with the risk management practices of the business. The consolidated entity does not currently expect the impact of these changes to be material. A more detailed assessment will be performed during 2018. AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers - Effective date 1 January 2018 (applicable date 1 July 2018) The core principle of AASB 15 is that an entity recognises revenue related to the transfer of promised goods and services when control of the goods or serves passes to customers. The amount of revenue recognised should reflect the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods or services. Farm Pride Foods have undertaken an impact assessment of the implementation of the standard. This included a detailed review of the performance obligations contained within a number of contracts from all material revenue streams. The assessment has concluded that the standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the recognition and measurement of revenue by the Group, however the Group has not established a quantitative assessment. The new standard will result in increased financial report disclosures in respect of Group's revenue streams. The Group is in the final stages of completing its implementation plan for the new standard. 28 Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) AASB 16 Leases -Effective date 1 January 2019 (applicable date 1 July 2019) Under the new standard, a lessee is in essence required to: (a) Recognise all right of use assets and lease liabilities, with the exception of short term (under 12 months) and low value leases, on the balance sheet. The liability is initially measured at the present value of future lease payments for the lease term. This includes variable lease payments th
